Deer Tick is an American alternative rock band hailing from Providence, Rhode Island, formed in 2004. The group is the brainchild of singer-songwriter John McCauley, who is known for his distinctively raspy vocals and raw, narrative-driven songwriting. Deer Tick's sound fluidly transitions between folk, blues, country, and rock genres, earning them a reputation for their sprawling and eclectic style. The band's lineup has evolved over the years, with McCauley as the consistent core, accompanied by a talented ensemble of musicians who have contributed to the band's dynamic and gritty live performances.

The band has released a series of albums and singles that showcase their versatility and dedication to their craft. Their discography includes an array of highly praised works, with their more recent releases such as "Mayonnaise" and "Divine Providence (11th Anniversary Edition)" displaying their ability to seamlessly blend unfiltered emotion with their distinctive blend of Americana-infused rock. Deer Tick's songs often alternate between moments of introspection and raucous, irreverent anthems, as seen in tracks like "Hey! Yeah!" and "Cake and Eggs." Always true to their DIY roots and with a passion for authentic, heartfelt music, Deer Tick continues to resonate with fans through their recordings and their spirited, no-holds-barred live shows.
